It is that comment. I’m thinking it might be the first frames of the gif that maybe boost is using as a placeholder. It only happens when I first load the app for a brief second before it starts playing. I have been trying to see if any of the other gifs I posted do the same thing. Haven’t been able to scroll down fast enough to see their placeholders though.

Found a different placeholder image. Going to have to open the gif and see if these frames are in there.

This screenshot was taken on Boost. I tried in a browser and I didn’t see the same thing. Not sure who is adding the placeholder.

To me this seems less like manipulation and more like you put in the effort to not only be a good boss, but a real person.
